Top Prom Dress Designer, Prom Expert, and Red-carpet Stylist, DeBora Rachelle comments on this year’s prom season
“DULUTH, MINN. –2007. With the Academy Awards behind us, I can honestly say that prommers will not be wearing gowns to mimic the stars this year. Aside from Penelope Cruz’s dramatic gown, there really was not a single gown worthy of taking home an award for “most likely to be worn at the prom”. Romantic looks with lace and tulle are the most desirable looks for prom. Like last year’s prom season, pinks and oranges are still selling strong. Making a come back are darker purple, lilacs and navy blue. Photo, shown

Modeled after Project Runway this event, in Pensacola Florida, allows local designers to show off their design talent. The organizers paired designers up with award winning teen essay authors to work together to design the perfect prom gown with the teens as the clients. The designers have four weeks to create their client’s perfect gown from their descriptions.
“The second annual Pensacola News Journal competition, based on the hit Bravo TV show “Project Runway,” feature 10 local fashion designer wannabes vying for the title of Top Local Aspiring Fashion Designer. Two of the contestants are sisters competing as a team. Nine local teens have been chosen based on their short essays and they will get the once-in-a-lifetime opportunity of having a dress custom designed and made for them.” Project Prom
The website has a lot of fun prom information beyond the contest itself. It must be exciting for the winning essay writers to receive a free prom gown. There is also a link on their website to contact a local service that provides free and low cost gowns for girls who can’t afford one of their own.
There are many other services like this around the country. Check out this list of services and if you know of one in your area that is not listed let me know. Everybody should have a chance at a wonderful prom night.

He of course designs much more, but here in this You Tube Video he speaks about the Prom Gowns, and Amanda Fields, the lovely model also from Project Runway, shows off another of his designs. I know some of the other models weren’t saying the nicest things about Amanda on the show but I have met her and spent time with she and her mom and sister and she is very sweet and wise about all of that. It does not bother her and she just keeps going for her dreams and wishes the others well no matter what.
I love Nick’s passion for design and wanting to create lovely affordable gowns for the Prom. Check his designs out here! Watch the video:

I like to peek in on website’s sales to see what gowns are under $100 because sales are the best places to find gowns that once cost much more and are now being marked down. Some cute gowns and dresses are priced to start at under $100 but isn’t it fun to get a dress for under that when it was once a lot more? Of course the most important thing is looking good but who doesn’t like a great sale? All gowns and photos, eDressme.com

When you think of goddesses you don’t think of stick figures. Plus sized gowns are as gorgeous as any other sized designs. These sites have more choices at different prices too, but as you can see, lovely pieces come in under $100. Some of these are on sale so check it out quick if you like one because sizes and quantity may be limited. Bookmark the sites for checking in on later for more sales. I linked to two gowns just slightly over $100 (in addition to the five, scroll down) since they were so lovely you had to see them.

Here are a selection of gowns offered online that if you didn’t know they were qualified to be called “modest” you would have just thought they were pretty prom gowns. Some can be found for under $100. Photo, Eddie Gist
